Just thought I'd give a Callum update as I often think of all the support we received from this forum.
Callum received his GCSE results last week. The number taken was reduced due to his brain injury, but I'm very proud to say he got :
Maths - A
Science - B
RE - C
ICT - C
English - E (retaking in November)
He's been accepted onto a level 3 course at college, studying sport. ⚽️

Maths & Science - the two toughest and most relevant to what he's off to college for and he smashed them out the park! Tikaboo, Callum!

Congrats to the lad, he's now officially overqualified to post anything on here.

That's brilliant - congrats Callum! That's an amazing achievement - if our team had your determination, we'd have won the league last season! Good luck for the start of term, hope you have a great time at college.

@Callum's Mum - you must be soooooo proud. Thanks for posting the update so we can all feel a bit proud too.

Well done Callum, hopefully he will get to do what he wants to once college finishes

That is amazing. You must be so proud. He is an inspiration to us all.

Well done Callum (and mum)

I've never met Callum or the family, but I feel as proud as if you were one of my own. Well done to all of you, and best wishes for the coming year.

How fantastic for Callum. He has come so far.

I was wondering how he was on Transfer Deadline Day as IIRC it was around this time he was injured.

Good Luck to all the family for the future.

I'd like to wish Callum continued progress in 2017 and all your family a very Happy New Year.

Keep in touch and let us know how things are going x

Hi!
Been a while since I've updated you all on Callum's progress, and as it will soon be 4 years since his accident I thought I'd bring you up to speed.
He's completed a year at college, he's found it challenging at times, but has passed his first year!
However, now that he's 18(!!), he's decided, and we agree with him, that he'd like to start looking for work.
With that in mind he's been volunteering on the ward where he was a patient! Amazing or what! He's looking for an apprenticeship in the NHS, as he knows they will be supportive of his disabilities.
He's still loving his football, and was named players player of the year for his disability football team.
So, all in all, everything is going great!

Glad to hear that he's doing well. Sounds like a great idea to help out on the ward. Good luck getting an apprenticeship. He definitely deserves one!

 

[SpunkyBackpack]

Okay now he's DEFINITELY overqualified to post on here.

 

[E8spur]

That's brilliant news - thanks for the update @Callum's Mum and well done to Callum. He would be really inspiring as an NHS worker - someone who has come through it all, and now ready to help others. I wish him all the luck with that and with his football.
